      …that picture brings up a really good question. Laura likes to have a mimosa for breakfast once in a while. Maybe I’ve been misunderstanding her and she’s been asking for a Momoa.

      I showed Laura the picture and yes, she would like a Momoa for breakfast…

        New to the forum and Looking at a couple items that are being sold through the forum. Reading other transactions what does it mean to “bump” an item?

          Bump is taking an old posting and moving it back to the top of the list of items for sale. Posts are in chronological order.

            @christoph a post on a sales thread, or a 'bump' is done to push your listing to the top of the marketplace.

            It's a commonly accepted practice, but try to bump considerately. I believe once a week is considered acceptable around here.

                @T4920 so mainly a bump is for the person who made the post then ?

                      Hi, apologies if this is in the wrong place.

                      I have been hemming my jeans to the length where I can cuff them and they dont go much lower than my heels. They are comfortable with bare feet but obviously ride up quite high when sitting (especially on my MC). for the most part I wear engineers so I dont really mind it too much but thinking perhaps I should try them a bit longer so the hem is lower when sitting.
                      My question is I have a few months of everyday wear (25oz 634) and the creasing and fading is definitely on the way behind the knee. Since I have committed to the length and the evolution of the honeycomb is on the way I was wondering if it would it be a mistake to uncuff them so they will hang a bit lower?
                      Thanks in advance for any insight

                        @fourperf I don’t think there is an answer to hem length and it’s all down to personal preference. Try it and see if you like it. Denim can be repaired (within reason) and the only drawback is the destruction of the hem.

                        Personally, I don’t mind it.

                          @goosehd Thanks a lot for your speedy reply!! It was more a concern of how it might affect the progress (or destruction) of the already evolving patina behind the knee. I am assuming the new amount of break will have an impact on that.

                            @fourperf my thoughts are yes it would change the honeycomb pattern but I don’t think it would cause more damage.

                            I don’t think I’ve ever seen a honeycomb blowout.

                                I don’t think unrolling cuffs will have any influence on what’s going on with the knee of your pants.

                                  Is there a parenting thread yet? As a recent father, it would be good to have a place for hardcore people like yourselves to share stories, wisdom, experience, etc, that us newbies can turn to.

                                  My search-fu is failing me if there is already a thread on that topic, but I’d be grateful to be directed to it if it already exists.

                                  Take the dive...
